"Monster" lyrics
"Monster"
So we were up
Thowin' dice in the dark
I saw you late, last night, come to harm
I saw you dance in the devil's arms
The night kept coming
Really nothing I could do
Eyes with a fire, unquenched, by peace
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
So we come
To a place of no return
Yours is the face, that makes my body burn
And here is the name that our sons will learn:
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
Curse the beauty, leave me
So when you're weak
When you are on your knees
I'll do my best, with the time, that's left
Sworn with your spirit, you're fully fleshed
So fuck your dreams
And don't you pick at our seams
I'll turn into a monster for you, If you pay me enough
None of this counts, a few dreams, plowed up
So we come
To a place of no return
Yours is the face, which makes my body burn
And here is the name, that our sons will learn:
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
Curse the beauty, leave me

It's not where we had wanted to be

The Paper Kites - "On The Train Ride Home" Waiting down at the station
I don’t remember
I think it was late then
Standing always so quiet
We’re like elevators
Filled up with strangers
No sound, no Hallelujahs
Still I was praying on the train...
